Plot
Misono Kari, a high school student with a crush on her teacher, Toono, discovers a magic spell where two people's spirits will switch bodies if they eat a mint candy and then kiss. Misono tries to kiss Toono using the magic candy, but accidentally kisses Shindou, a boy who has been bothering her. Misono's spirit leaves her body and enters Shindou's body, and vice versa. They must navigate their daily lives while trying to find a way to reverse the body-switching spell, learning about each other's lives and secrets.
